Bill C-14: What Went Wrong

Presented by The Humanist Association of Toronto (HAT)

Speaker is Canadian Author Gary Bauslaugh

Saturday,September17,2016,1:30- 3:00pm

OISE, 252 Bloor St. west, Room 4-414

The Supreme Court of Canada’s historic ruling in February, 2015 declared the law prohibiting assisted death unconstitutional and provided guidelines for new legislation that would be in tune with our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Then it went to the politicians to pass actual legislation.

The results, however, were tragically inadequate. A highly flawed law was passed in June - a betrayal of the efforts of many Canadians to protect the right of grievously ill and suffering Canadians to have a dignified and peaceful death.
